I have a quick question. I'm looking to get new struts for my fully shot suspension. I guess for struts I can just pick up some Tokico Blues. What part number do I get for the rear? I have an '84 GT (solid axle). Do I get HE2572 or HE2483?

Yes, they will fit the RA64.. Dob's are Aussie, they call the SRA models RA60's there.

yeah well i didn't read the last part where it said solid rear axles only haha and who makes a direct fit adjustable shock/strut all around my car, i don't want to mix and match different suspension components i want the same shock all around and preferably adjustable...

You're a bit out of luck there... Your best bet is to run SW20 MR2 rear struts in the front and then the same type of F body (80's) Camaro rear shocks in the rear. KYB AGX works rather nicely.

no off the shelf kits. Looking at this restoration you can see what they did http://www.mat.fi/project1984toyotacelicaturbo.htm

I've also heard about people using an upside down coil over kit to fit where the shocks are now.
